!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:

dev-libs/libxml2:2

(dev-libs/libxml2-2.9.0-r2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
dev-libs/libxml2[icu] required by (www-client/chromium-25.0.1364.160::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)

(dev-libs/libxml2-2.9.0-r2::gentoo, installed) pulled in by
dev-libs/libxml2:2[!icu?] required by (dev-qt/qtwebkit-4.8.4::gentoo, installed)

It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in
the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
not be installed simultaneously. You may want to try a larger value of
the --backtrack option, such as --backtrack=30, in order to see if
that will solve this conflict automatically.

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man
page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

And the initial message means you must have put newline before automatically added 'required' so that it looks as package atom for Portage. Find the problematic line and fix it and the message will be gone.
